In the last century, such art as graffiti was perceived as hooliganism or a protest of young people against laws established by society. It was believed that the drawings on the walls, fences, buildings, spoil the appearance of the city. Over time, images began to be perceived as an expression of their thoughts. Graffiti has become meaningful in art and has become part of culture. Writers apply their images in various ways, among which is also used a device for the mass production of graffiti.
Graffiti differences
Graffiti artists create their own plots using various devices. Someone draws a spray pattern from spray cans, someone uses airbrushes. Someone draws surreal stories, slogans, letters from several layers. Some writers use a device for mass production of graffiti.
Many artists are sure that stencils are unacceptable and can only be used for signature. As they say, how many people, so many opinions. In fact, the difference is obvious. Graffiti stencils do not make mistakes or mistakes. Also, with their help, the drawing is applied quickly and easily. By attaching the blank to the wall, it is easy to spray paint over it in a few minutes. In addition, the pre-made template is well-designed, and with it the drawing fits perfectly.
Advantages of applying an image using a stencil
Graphic scenes using templates are applied quickly and efficiently. The device for the mass production of graffiti is made by the riders themselves from cardboard or other dense material. The graffiti artist has time to think over his vision of the world in advance and express it with the help of a template. Small workpieces can be carried with you and, if appropriate, quickly used. Stencils made of plastic can be used repeatedly.
Where to begin?
If you want to make your device for the mass production of graffiti, then you need to know that the templates can be single-layer and multi-layer. In the first case, you need to create the desired image and transfer it using carbon paper to the material for the template. It can be cardboard or thin plastic, which will be conveniently cut. Then, using a clerical knife, cut out the image, not forgetting about the contours that cannot be connected.
In the second case, the only difference is that you will need several stencils corresponding to the number of colors used. Image layers should have their order. Large parts are applied first, then small ones.
